A quote for discussion

This evening I finished the book “Jim and Casper Go To Church.” The book relates the insights and observations of an atheist as he and a former pastor visit 10 churches in America. Good read. A quote from the book stood out to me, so I wanted to throw it out there for discussion.

“…what do you think this enlightened, impassioned, and above all, humble carpenter from Galilee would say about Plexiglass dunking tanks, millionaire pastors, camera cranes, and music coming straight out of Branson? Is this what Jesus had in mind for the church?” – Casper, p. 46. Casper later asks Jim a similar question, “Is this what Jesus told you guys to do?”
